Your Outdoor Kitchen

If it’s near your home, you can save money because your new kitchen will hook up to your home’s water, electricity and gas lines.

However, if you want to add a complete outdoor kitchen by your pool house, you’ll need to take the three hookups under consideration. A self-reliant outdoor kitchen can include refrigeration, warming cabinets and cabinetry.

When it comes to cabinetry, you have three choices:

Stainless steel: Ideally, 304 stainless steel is the best to stand up to New York’s weather. It’s hardy, and it’ll match your grill.

Your outdoor cabinetry isn’t your only consideration for a new outdoor kitchen. You also need to consider

Flooring: You’ll most likely use flagstone, concrete, brick or patio pavers. You want them to match with your home’s colors as well as other outdoor flooring already in use.

Counter space: You have four choices for countertops: granite, concrete, ceramic or porcelain tile, and flagstone. Each has their pros and cons. Plus, some are more expensive than others.

Dining area: You can have a bar around the kitchen that allows your guests to sit and talk to you while you prepare the meal. Or you can have a separate area just off the kitchen for people to sit in comfortable chairs or sofas.

Cover your outdoor kitchen: A pergola or a pavilion make two good choices when you want to add a roof to your outdoor kitchen. Pergolas give you a break out of the sun, and a pavilion roof will protect you from rain and wind.

Cooking accessories: Everyone is different. If you love to prepare gourmet meals, you may want a full kitchen with refrigeration, lots of counter space, a pizza oven, bbq and Or you may want a simple grill with some counter space and a sink.

Designing Your Outdoor Kitchen

Once you’ve decided where you’re putting your new outdoor kitchen and what materials you want to include in its construction, you need to talk to a landscape designer.
